Another noob Q on Turbo's t3 t4????

[PhoenixSHO]

Start by "throwing" some knowledge into your head by picking up a copy of Corkie Bell's "Maximum Boost".

Then you'll know how to "throw on" a:
make it yourself turbo manifold (there is no "ready made" mani for the b3)
Boost controller
Adjustable Fpr
Charge pipe
Down pipe
Coolant lines in and out
Oil line in
Oil tee
Oil restrictor
Oil drain out
Bung on oil pan
Blow off or bypass valve
Ic or Meth injection
Air fuel ratio gauge
Boost gauge
O2 Voltage clamp

How many things is that?

Yeah "Throw on a turbo" ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,

+1 on that , the turbo price is about 1/20th of what its gonna cost to have it running in the car.

A good BOV is 200+ and a good wastegate is 300.

A china turbo with all garret components in its rebuild is about 1/3 the retail price of a full garrett. Its not a bad deal to come up on the china's when you can. I'd sell it or trade it to a honda guy for some nice used honda coilovers that you can actually use. There is an active b3 turbo build on this board and it's done great. ^^iceracer has had multiple combos and knows the ins an outs of having to make a kit for an engine that has zero aftermarket support as well.

+2 on turbo builds cost and parts lists/headaches.. This is why once you have owned a turbo car, you usually have a lot of stuff lying around to have another and another. same with bottle feeders.

I figure most naive and un-read folks wishing to toy with unknown turbos and superchargers should drop a live .22 round down a spark plug hole, and then put the plug back in, so they can instantly experience what they're in for. Lifespan on amateur engine jobs won't be that much different, and at least they won't have spent any money (yet).
